@WarMonitor3 Omsk? That would be significant indeed.

@DrewDrewski86 @JayinKyiv Russia did issue 100% bonds once, though that was just prior to its financial collapse in 1998, so there is precedent. Anything above 25% starts risking an eventual restructure rather than full payback ("junk" territory).

@Jonpy99 There was some talk at the start of the War that Russia had insufficient precision equipment for turning out replacement barrels. If that was unable to be addressed, perhaps much of the stock taken out of storage is simply barrel replacement.

@jurgen_nauditt Famine is overblown, there is more than enough food. Prices, however, can be pushed far higher by a poor harvest. The lack of available credit could send many producers under and sets the scene for medium-term malaise in the industry.

@IrrawaddyNews The AA need to remain a fighting outfit, with a separate civilian administration (like the Karen & Kachin). Soldiers make poor civil administrators; just look at Naypyidaw.

@anders_aslund It is extremely unlikely Russia will ever willingly abandon Crimea, choosing to pour ever more resources into it instead. The concentration of valuable military assets makes it akin to shooting fish in a barrel; a black-hole for the Russian military.

@Majakovsk73 Russia struggles to supply its existing troops, not least due to Ukrainian mid-strike drones. It needs to heavily invest in logistics for substantive numbers to join the fray.

@MohLeDroniste He's hardly the originator of this approach. The "Grey Wiggle" was brought on by Australia in the intercontinental playoff against Peru in 2022 to great effect. youtube.com/watch?v=CG-bsc…

@bayraktar_1love That is interesting. Payload increasing or the AI getting better at engineering? Possibly a little from column A and a little from column B.

@nexta_tv The more of the Kremlin's increasingly limited budget spent on vanity projects the better.

@anders_aslund From the Estonian and Finnish side, from what I understand. That means both can open their border to enable Russians to flee a mobilization, should one occur. This is closing that loophole.

A comparison between stocks in Russia, Poland and Kazakhstan since Feb 2022 provides yet another indicator as to the negative impact on the Russian non-war economy.

@Maks_NAFO_FELLA It is difficult to assess the extent of the problem, however there will be an impact, especially if inclement weather arrives whilst crops are still in the field.
